Watford have already beaten Palace twice this season, winning 2-1 at home last August before claiming the same result at Selhurst Park earlier this year.The Hornets have already angered Palace supporters in the build up to the match by restricting the amount to tickets to away supporters. They gave the south London club the full 15 per cent they are entitled to, but decided against giving the entire Vicarage Road stand to Palace; Watford will instead net off remaining empty seats due to segregation issues in said stand.
